Toads are a very powerful symbol in the Asian culture (At least in Japan and China) . Bellow you have a quote from the seller , but you can also check wikipedia here about it. Toads are praised by taoists and are found in many books and graphical works.

I just want to have a stable tea partner. It’s very relaxing to have it near by .

“The Golden Toad, which has the full name “Treasured Golden Toad, Bringer of Wealth and Fortune,” is valued in Chinese fengshui for its ability to attract good fortune. It is considered especially useful for people involved in business, as it can cause wealth to come pouring in from all sides. The Golden Toad is believed to possess the dual functions of hastening the acquisition of wealth and promoting long-term prosperity.”
